Your format also doesn't seem to include track number (although easily
accommodated as Artist\Album\tracknum-trackname.wav). Nevertheless,
tagging allows richer information. In addition to the already mentioned
year and genre, you can, for example, add sorting tags (e.g.
artist=David Bowie, artistsort=Bowie, David), compilation flags (which
SS uses heavily) and comments. Also, the directory structure approach
can be challenging for compilation albums. Ultimately, having
metainformation stored with the track is more robust than guessing from
the directory structure. While SS can guess the info, if you start using
any other apps (e.g. MusicIP) they may not be able to.
